Some Starbucks employees thought the anti-bias training they received was not very practical.

“The videos of cops knocking people down and fighting people were really disturbing,” Tina explained. “I told them I didn’t like the video and they told me they understood and that I was open to give my opinion.” What does watching videos about police brutality have to do with the situation that happened, Tina said she kept asking herself. “They went too deep into it and missed the point all at the same time.”

“At one point,” said Jamie, “a girl at my table actually had to get up and leave because video after video they showed black people being assaulted by police or black people being verbally assaulted and white people being racially biased toward people of color. It offended her. She left after that.”

Though Starbucks attempted to get people to confront stereotypes and unconscious biases with the new phrase, the exercise left Tina feeling singled out. “I feel like a lot of people of color were targeted [yesterday], and I know that wasn’t the whole objective of having that meeting,” said Tina. “Every activity focused on people of color and how they feel about their race.” Tina left all of the following questions in her journal blank, calling the exercise “just ridiculous”:

“Racism has been here before Starbucks, and racism will continue to be here after Starbucks,” said Jamie. “It’s weird they focused so heavily on how we feel about our racial identity, because how is that going to help me deal with a homeless person using drugs in my bathroom?”

Yes, I wonder how many of those videos of police assaulting black people skipped the first first part of the video where the black person was being obnoxious and resisting arrest and jumped straight to the part where the evil white guy was trying to get them on the floor to cuff them.

If you don't want to be heckled and barred from restaurants maybe don't go around lying in defense of fascism. It's really not that hard.

Fascism. Right.

Name one right you've had that's been constricted under Trump. You've had mass marches that take place with government protection. A media that has all but one major news network airing nonstop critical coverage of Trump. No mandatory conscription and the most militant thing Trump has suggested is his cartoonish Space Force idea. You're free to rant about Trump on social media and people will cheer (unlike the people who praise him, who get hounded by the mob). You're free to go out and vote and if you're to be believed a blue wave+Mueller is about to make Trump an irrelevancy.

But it's "fascism". Okay. Sure. Whatever people need to make their lives feel dramatic.

I can see why they didn't want to serve her due to the many, many lies she tells in service of trump, but I think they should have bit their tongues and served her. Or course, there's nothing saying they couldn't have made her wait and wait for a table/food and if they had any folks of color/immigrants working in the kitchen letting them know whose order it was.

As for neilsen and miller (IIRC), going to Mexican restaurants while their boss is calling Mexicans animals, they deserved to be heckled.
